A member asked:
Could you suggest me to reduce ankle and heel pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ankle and heel pain: Two different areas. The ankle pain may be due to injury or arthritis. The heel may be due to plantar fasciitis, compression of a nerve, or fracture. Have them first evaluated with x-ray, and then if necessary MRI imagining to determine the extent of the injury. Icing, stretching, a night splint, and supportive shoes. Possibly an ankle brace.
